Earthly wisdom is doing what comes naturally. Godly wisdom is doing what the Holy Spirit compels us to do.

Wisdom is a sacred communion.

True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.

Whatever science and philosophy may do for mankind, the world can never outgrow its need of the simplicity that is in Christ.

We must not be wise and prudent according to the flesh. Rather, we must be simple, humble and pure.

All this worldly wisdom was once the unamiable heresy of some wise man.

This, and this alone, is Christianity, a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.

Holy wisdom confounds Satan and all his wickednesses.

After many years of great mercy, after tasting of the powers of the world to come, we still are so weak, so foolish; but, oh! when we get away from self to God, there all is truth and purity and holiness, and our heart finds peace, wisdom, completeness, delight, joy, victory.

Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
